WHY IS "QARATUTU" SUCH A GREAT INVESTMENT PROPERTY?

The Fiji Islands are the last pristine places on Earth. Freehold properties (which you can buy, own and resell) represent only 8% of the total land. The rest of the land is titled Native Land. This is why freehold lands are a rare commodity. Most importantly, any properties with direct water access are extremely hard to find.

“Qaratutu” is both freehold and waterfront.

The real-estate market in Fiji is starting to experience a considerable growth and will continue to do so as more and more people are searching for a tropical paradise away from stress, pollution and hectic lives. Fiji is truly the best retreat in the world.

This property has great potential for growth and return on investment.

# 1 – Offshore development project:

We are finalizing a 1 hectare (= additional 2.47 acres) offshore development with a 99 year lease right in front of the property. It includes the reclamation of one hectare and a jetty. The possibilities are endless with this additional acreage: White sandy beach, a resort, villas for rental, landscaping, etc. We have already obtained permission from the Lands Department. A buyer could finalize this deal which will add great value to the entire property. Once this project is finished, the asking price for the property will increase accordingly. Please contact us for an update on this project.

# 2 – Zoning:

The entire property is already zoned for tourism. This means it could operate a small resort, a diving shop, a sport fishing business, a backpacker retreat, etc ... The Fijian government has been welcoming tourism oriented ventures as there is a shortage of rooms and tourist activities. It is estimated that, in 2006 along, there will be a shortage of over 2,000 rooms. The government has actually started a “Look North” campaign to improve infrastructure on Vanua Levu.

# 3 – Sea access:

This land has deep water access meaning that one could park a boat near the land. Fawn Harbor bay is simply gorgeous. It has several small islands with white sandy beach, beautiful snorkeling spots, etc … It is also known as a cyclone shelter for sailboats and is often visited by expensive boats on their way to Taveuni Island. The bay is quite large. The actual reef is about 1 mile from the property which ensures safety in case of a storm or water surge.

# 4 – Drinking water:

We have legal unimpeded access to a huge artesian water spring ... Great for a swimming pool! The water is gravity fed from the mountain behind us and provides great water pressure. We never run out of water unlike many places in Fiji.

# 5 – Custom Home:

The home has an awesome open floor plan with 360 degree views. It is easy to fall in love with it. The house can be rented for great income as it is self-contained and turn-key. Such home would target the high end rental market.

# 6 – Location:

The property is only a 15 minute-boat ride from the world famous Rainbow Reef and 30 minutes from Taveuni Island. It is about 40 minutes from Savusavu Airport via Hibiscus Highway. 33 km are not sealed but it is scheduled to be sealed starting with 12 kilometers this year. Within a 20 minute leisure walk from the house, there are natural hot spring baths where you can relax in complete seclusion. There are countless bushwalks to take in the rainforest nearbye.

# 7 – Neighborhood:

The entire area is quiet and safe. The neighbors are a mix of Fijians, Part-Europeans and Expatriates. The property is situated at a 5 minute-drive of a resort and is surrounded by other properties owned by expatriates. It is very clean and pristine. The property is fully landscaped with exotic plants and fruit trees.

The property is very private.
